| I have encountered on three different occassions the sensored tire valves failing and leaking. i reported the first to toyota and the dealership replaced the faulty valve. approximately 2 months later i had a second valve fail and again had it replaced at a toyota dealership. on june 25, 2012 i again had a valve failure and contacted the toyota customer care center thinking i had a design problem as three of the four valves failed within 6 months. i was told that they would replace any valve deemed defective but not replace all four as i requested. my concern is that with these valves a failure could occur at any time and at highway speeds this could be tragic. i am asking that this agency look into the valve design and failure rate to determine if the public safety is at risk. i have replaced all the valves with standard rubber valves making my pressure monitoring system inoperable. toyota will make no attempt to rectify this situation to my satisfaction and i am truly concerned that a potential problem truly exists. i am sure that my pickup truck is not the only one with this type of failure rate. | |||

| At 25000 miles the tires needed to be replaced on my 2010 toyota tunrda due to poor outside wear. i rotate and monitor my tire pressre regulaly. the dealer checked the suspension and said there was not issue with it, yet they replaced the rack steering at 27000 miles. i have since replaced the tires and had the vehicle aligned and they are alreary worn out again with 10000 miles on them. any newer tundra i see on the road seems to have the same issue with various tire brands high end or not. ie michelin, toyo, bridgestone. | |||
